Floating Onion Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I saw both the 176 & 40 running. Caught the 40 into the city without any problems. Just busy.

cg Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 There seem to be no 197 buses running down Barry Road and trains seem to be suspended between East Dulwich and East Croydon - anyone seen a 197 bus or know of any routes to get to east croydon?

Monkey Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I waited for a number 40 bus for ages this morning - it might have been running this morning but it's not any more or the service is so reduced that they might just not bother at all! Lies and incomptence from Transport for London. What's new?

SeanMacGabhann Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 What Floating Onion saidI passed 37s, 185s, 176s and 40s all in operation today - caught a 40 to E&C but most buses were busy(and handled DKH with aplomb) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5136-buses-are-they-running-today/#findComment-164495 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoopy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 NO chance of getting on a 176 or 185 for at least the next hour. There are about 50 people waiting at the stop in Forest Hill and by the time they get to the Harvester there's another 20+ people so no-one can get one.

alice1586 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Number 40 is running, but seems to be starting on grove vale, just before ED station.

enid Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Not seen a 12 or 40 from Dulwich Library, and the 176 and 185 are too full to get on. Also, daytime TV's definitely gone downhill in the last couple of years.

Not too bad a journey all things considered.

Top tip - don't wait at ED station bus stop, get on at Grove Vale, it will be full in the 100m to ED station.

Ladygooner Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Got the No 40 to E&C this morning - only took 20 mins. Nice man got up and gave me his seat! There are plusses in getting older! Then got No 12 to Oxford circus - big hold up on Whitehall and Trafalgar square so had to get off and walk for a bit before getting another bus to work. About an hour and twenty in total Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/5136-buses-are-they-running-today/#findComment-164520 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 343 from Peckham Rye running clear and well this morning - full but not horrendous. Well done to the bus drivers for getting us in, although a number of the roads were still pretty tricky.

Shaggy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Ditto the futility of trying to get on the 176 from Lordship Lane. Crowds of people at every stop. I walked as far as the Harveste, and decided there wasn't a chance. So now I'm on the 363 to Elephant where I plan to get a tube. In comparison to the 176 this one cruised half empty down Barry Road.

Cassius Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Bit late for cg, but the 197 was running (albeit infrequently). I got to East Croydon by getting the 363 which was conveniently running up Barry Road to Crystal Palace and a 157 to West Croydon and walked the rest - mmmmmm only a mere 90 minutes.

Mr Cool Ice Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Good avo peeps,I know there were some 40s running towards town earlier this morning (as my flatmate saw them), though I didn't see any later on in the morning when I was looking to head in (9:30 onwards), and I was out on the rode for a fair amount of time.Just wondering if anyone knows if they're running in the other direction for the way home? If so, then I can make my way to London Bridge to catch one for the way home (trains still not running) but if not then I'll need an alternate route.Thanks - please keep us updated if you hear or see anything and I'll do likewise.

Floating Onion Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 The 40s seem to be running fine. On one now & just missed the one before it.
